If you are using a wrench to loosen a very stubborn nut, you can make the job easier by using a "cheater pipe." This is a piece

of pipe that slides over the handle of the wrench, making it effectively much longer. Explain why this would help you loosen the nut.

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The cheater pipe extends the wrench in  radial direction, providing a larger momentum for the force you exert.

For a given force the torque exerted with the cheater pipe is larger.

Mathematically we can write that

τ = r×F and τ'= r'×F

now since r'> r

⇒ F'>F

Answer:

When we use the “cheater pipe” torque increases and loosening the nut becomes easy.

Explanation:

The formula for the torque is given by,

T = rF      ……….. (i)

Where,

r = moment arm

F= Force exerted by hand

When “cheater pipe” is used, there is increase in the moment arm and consequently increase in applied torque to nut at constant force. Due to this reason loosening the nut using “cheater pipe” becomes easy.

What two factors determine the density of a fluid?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

Mass and volume.

Explanation:

The equation for density is always mass divided by volume. To determine the density of a fluid, you would need to find its volume and its mass.

A 40-cmcm-long tube has a 40-cmcm-long insert that can be pulled in and out. A vibrating tuning fork is held next to the tube. A
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

1070 Hz

Explanation:

First, I should point out there might be a typo in the question or the question has inconsistent values. If the tube is 40 cm long, standing waves cannot be produced at 42.5 cm and 58.5 cm lengths. I assume the length is more than the value in the question then. Under this assumption, we proceed as below:

The insert in the tube creates a closed pipe with one end open and the other closed. For a closed pipe, the difference between successive resonances is a half wavelength \frac{\lambda}{2}.

Hence, we have

\dfrac{\lambda}{2}=58.5-42.5=16 \text{ cm}

\lambda=32\text{ cm}=0.32 \text{ m}.

The speed of a wave is the product of its wavelength and its frequency.

v=f\lambda

f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}

f=\dfrac{343}{0.32}=1070 \text{ Hz}
